Help creating .theme file....

[*Reaper*]

Ok... What I'm trying to find is the clsid values of individual icons, so when I create a theme

I can change alot of the default windows icons.....

Example..... (taken from a .theme file)

[Theme]

; My Computer
[CLSID\{20D04FE0-3AEA-1069-A2D8-08002B30309D}\DefaultIcon]
DefaultValue=%WinDir%Explorer.exe,0

; My Documents
[CLSID\{450D8FBA-AD25-11D0-98A8-0800361B1103}\DefaultIcon]
DefaultValue=%WinDir%SYSTEM32\mydocs.dll,0

; My Network Places
[CLSID\{208D2C60-3AEA-1069-A2D7-08002B30309D}\DefaultIcon]
DefaultValue=%WinDir%system32\SHELL32.dll,17

; Recycle Bin
[CLSID\{645FF040-5081-101B-9F08-00AA002F954E}\DefaultIcon]
full=%WinDir%System32\shell32.dll,32
empty=%WinDir%System32\shell32.dll,31

This gives me the default clsid values for those 4 icons.....

But how do I find out the clsid values for all the other icons that can be changed????

Any help would be appreciated...

Ive never thought to try this but am unsure this will work...Anyway just go to that place in the registry and do a search (CTRL+F) for DefaultIcon and maybe make a list of wich "CLSID's" have a DefaultIcon and see if you can change them using a .theme file

RegEdit.exe

HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\

Edit: No, I tried it with .CAB files and it did not work

Hey, but at least some do...Its a good idea

BTW nice job and if you decide to go thru them one by one and find each one, will you kindly make a list and put it somewhere so us in the future may use it as a guide?
